For my sociology project during the winter break I have decided to break this social norm: forget the name of the person I will sit on the Christmas table.

(A friend‚ unfortunately‚ does the same thing with “My Papa’s Waltz” by Theodore Roethke. You can go to the Poetry Foundation page here for that sad poem.)
